The Ross Sea polynya is among the most productive regions in the Southern Ocean and may constitute a significant oceanic CO2 sink. Based on results from several field studies, this region has been considered seasonally ...

Continental margin sediments provide a potentially large but poorly constrained source of dissolved iron (dFe) to the upper ocean. The Ross Sea continental shelf is one region where this benthic supply is thought to play ...

The Ross Sea is home to some of the largest phytoplankton blooms in the Southern Ocean. Primary production in this system has previously been shown to be iron limited in the summer and periodically iron and vitamin B12 ...

We estimate the relative contribution of relict organic matter to the acid-insoluble organic carbon
(AIOC) fraction of surface sediments from Ross Sea, Antarctica, on the basis of 14C abundance. The bulk
isotopic ...
